– Reminds Shareholders that the Record Date for MGM’s 2015 Annual Meeting is March 30th

Stamford, CT— (March 30, 2015) – Land and Buildings, an investment firm specializing in publicly traded real estate and real estate related securities, and a shareholder of MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) (“MGM” or the “Company”), today issued the following statement regarding the preliminary proxy statement that it filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2015: “Land and Buildings continues to believe that MGM is undervalued and that now is the time to unlock the substantial discount to real estate value at the Company.

Since we issued our presentation on March 17th through when MGM filed its preliminary proxy on March 20th that did not endorse any of the Land and Buildings director nominees, more than $1.5 billion of shareholder value has been created. Based on this market reaction to our ideas, as well as conversations with other shareholders, we believe that there is significant shareholder support for our plan. We continue to believe that substantial shareholder value can be created at MGM through, as seen in other companies, a REIT conversion, a tax free spin-off of a lodging C-corp as well as a reduction of leverage through asset sales and an MGM China special “We believe that the current Board has not maximized the potential value of MGM and that the voices of shareholders must be heard.

To that end, we urge shareholders to vote on the GOLD proxy card, when available, to elect Land & Buildings’ slate of four director nominees, Matthew J. Hart, Richard Kincaid, Jonathan Litt and Marc A. Weisman (collectively, the “Nominees”), at the 2015 Annual Meeting. We believe these Nominees possess the extensive real estate and finance experience necessary to unlock shareholder value at MGM. We are seeking to change a minority of the Board to ensure that the interests of shareholders are appropriately represented in the boardroom.” Land and Buildings reiterates that the Record Date for the Company’s 2015 Annual Meeting is March 30th. As a result, shareholders may need to take steps with their custodial banks and brokerage firms to ensure that they have the ability to vote their shares at the upcoming 2015 Annual Meeting.

MGM shareholders should pay particular attention to any shares presently held in swap arrangements or in margin accounts. In order to ensure that shareholders have the ability to vote their shares, they should consider beginning the process of promptly unwinding any swap accounts to allow sufficient time before the record date. Land and Buildings also reminds MGM shareholders that any shares held in margin accounts that may be loaned by a broker will need to be moved into a cash account in advance of the record date if shareholders want to vote their shares.
